Bad message for lossless JPG transformations

The message is incorrect in multiple ways, should be:

JPEG lossless operation will directly modify original file(s) on storage media, and if the size is not an integer multiple of 16, it may unrecoverably crop away up to 15 pixels at right and bottom of original picture.
There is indeed no WinZIP under my rock.

Lossless is an unfortunate term. Too many conditions. JPEG direct transformations would be more descriptive.
